Risso's Dolphin Pod Adults Slaughtered

   December 4th 2011/ Via SeaShepherds Taiji: 9-11 Risso's dolphins driven into the cove today.3 dolphins taken to cruel life of captivity-the rest of the pod killed. #Tweet4Taiji

A pod of Risso dolphins was driven into the Cove today. For hours the family struggled as the dolphin hunters beat on metal poles and chased them down. Once in the Cove the pod was brutally slaughtered. Three members of the pod were kept for a life of captivity. Each time a person swims with dolphins, and visits a marine park they keep the dolphin drives alive and well. Please boycott these cetacean prisons. Dolphins belong in our oceans with their families, not behind the bars provided by the cement tanks, and sea pens of captivity.
